There are many things in life that come to me easily. There is, however, one thing that eludes me. I cannot have it no matter how hard I try. Very much like Tantalus’ grapes. But I am not disheartened. I believe even if I may not eventually have what I want, it is the struggle…

In SD
This is great. I haven’t been home at all. Last week I was in LA. This week I am in SD. I love it. Just having tons of fun. I will be back in Arizona on Monday. Right now I’m chilling with my cousins and my sister in SD. My parents were here last week….
Things I would like to do
Sometimes I wish I had time to do the many things I would like to do. First, I would like to code a lot – no surprise there. Then, I want to do some linguistic stuff. Read up on all sorts of languages; try to make inferences as to their relationships and their derivations. I…
Graduated

Dr. Pheanis’ Last Class
Today was Dr. Pheanis’ last day as a professor. We were his very last class. He said he would remember us the most because we were his last class. I think it is very fitting that the CSE 521 class would be his last. We are essentially (in his view – I am not just…

Holy Crap! It’s May already!
Jackass at Jack In the Box
I was stuck behind a total JACKASS at the Jack in the Box drive-through. Seriously! I was so pissed off I wanted to smash the hell out of his car and then throw him out of the drive-through line! First, he took at least 5 to 10 minutes to order what he wanted. I mean,…
